Trump: Resolving the Ukraine conflict may be more difficult than resolving the Middle East issue. The US and Canada are studying the possibility of expanding the coverage of the "Iron Dome" missile defense system.

Sputnik News, Washington - US President Trump told reporters at the White House that resolving the Ukraine conflict may be more difficult than resolving the Middle East issue.

Trump said: "I previously thought it would be one of the easiest things to resolve. I get along well with Putin. I am very disappointed in him. I thought (the Ukraine conflict - note) would be easy to resolve. But it turned out to be more complicated than the Middle East issue. Let's see what happens."

The United States and Canada are discussing the possibility of expanding the coverage of the latest "Iron Dome" missile defense system to Canada.

Trump said during a meeting with Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau at the White House: "We are closely cooperating on the 'Iron Dome' project. This is a defensive mechanism, and you can see how it works. It is incredible. ... We will develop the 'Iron Dome' system for both countries. This is crucial, especially considering the current global situation."
